An experimental study on the release of harmful gas by decomposing Limnoperna fortunei suggests that the concentrations of ammonia NH3 (47.9777–307.9454 mg/m3) exceed the occupational exposure limit of 30 mg/m3. This suggests that the harmful gas produced by putrid L. fortunei in dewatered areas may pose a threat to human health and safety during maintenance and removal.
